Milwaukee woman carjacked, neighbor catches act on camera

CBS 58 spoke with Omayra Rivera who says she had her car taken at gunpoint, and a neighbor who recorded part of that carjacking on camera.

\"I start backing up to lock my doors, and when I go like this to look back, the guy comes rushing,\" Rivera said. \"He put his hand like this, he had a red hoodie, he said give me the keys, and just snatched the keys off my hand.\"

It was a scary encounter for Rivera and her friends, victims of an armed carjacking at the corner of 24th and Lapham.

Rivera says the crime happened shortly after eight Thursday night when she parked her car outside her home.

\"I could see the dude holding the gun,\" said Rivera.

A neighbor who does not want to be identified caught the getaway on his security cameras.

The video shows one man running to the stolen car before riding away with the driver down the alley.
